“Why should you suffer through a 140-minute Russian film that is basically a contemporary remake of The Book of Job? Because it's a stupendous piece of work, that's why, and because it represents the kind of challenging, intimate filmmaking that transcends language and borders.” Peter Travers, Rolling Stone.

A Russian fisherman fights back when a corrupt mayor tries to seize possession of his ancestral home.

140 minutes; Russian with English subtitles
